GOP
(Continued From Page One) The New York result was not surprising!! to Hoosier political observers, since Gov. Dewey’s entire political future was at stake. He himself, following the election, declared the issue was purely a vote of confidence in his state administration. Philadelphia, home of the Pews, has been in the Republican column for 62 years, and it was not unexpected it would remain there. The Kentucky race, too, was on state, rather than national issues, although the Republican National Committee poured thousands of dollars into the state, as it did Indiana in the last state election. In Indiana, too, most of the town elections were on purely local issues, and in most communities candidates ran on Independent, Citizens, Taxpayers or Peoples tickets' rather than as Democrats or Republicans. Although Republican State Chairman Ralph Gates claimed the town election results indicated a "strong trend toward the Republican party,” a complete check A probably will show the statement as exaggerated as was his claim a year ago to large gains in mayoralties in the state. While Republicans did unseat 18 Democratic mayors in the last municipal elections, Democrats replaced 17 Republican mayors, giving the G. O. P., despite its large claims, a net gain of one. Several towns, long controlled by Republicans, chose Democratic administrations in Indiana. Terre Haute, for example, named a full Democratic ticket for the . first time in many years. Jonesboro, Grant county, turned out its Republican officials in favor of Democrats, as did Adamson in Knox county. A Democratic son beat a Republican father in a trustee race in Galveston, Cass county. In Marshal county, Lapaz, Bremen and Argos Democratic tickets won, and Democrats also were elected at Mellot, Fountain county; Onward, Cass county. There were many others from which reports had not been received.

program to take care of the remediable defects of thoso new of fighting age. It was because Selective Service found so many 4-Fs among single men and married non-fathers that it is now obliged to break up so many American homes, he said. From one-quarter to one-third or more of those classified 4-F, it is estimated, could have been made fit for general military service by proper and timely care and treatment over a comparatively short period fo time. From Nevember, 1940, through September, 1941, some 3,000,000 registrants were examined by local Selective Service boards. Health defects accounuts for the rejection for general military service of about half of those examined. ‘‘These painful results from the acumulated health neglect of a whole population indicate why I am particularly interested in comprehensive national health legislation and in the medical insurance part of the Wagner-Murray-Dingell bill to enlarge and strengthen our national system of social security,” Sen. Wagner said. There has been some question raised as to what the new Wagner bill would do for returning service men. As Senator Wagner explained it in a copyrighted article in the New York Post, “Broadly speaking, it provides paid-up benfit rights for the returning serviceman and hasfamily for a full year after his discharge from the armed forces, under all phases of the enlarged social insurance plan. It also protects them against loss of rights under existing programs. In other words, the bill assures the viceman and his family for a full behind in any civilian social insurance rights to which other insurance workers are, or may become entitled. The new heatlh protection benefits under the bill for returning servicemen are in addition to the life-long use of veterans’ facilities assured all veterans by law.”

Wake Up. America !
Has the Japanese**American Problem Been Bungled by W. R. A.:
Honorable Karl Mundt Congressman, 1st District,
South Dakota
As debated by
Honorable Herman P. Eberbartel Congressman, 32nd District,
Pennsylvania
CONGRESSMAN MUNDT OPENS: fudged by the criterion of whether Ihe War Relocation Authority has fully measured up to its opportunity to utilize Japanese relocation centers to produce the best possible results both from the standpoint of the Japanese and of America as a whole, I believe the War Relocation Authority has bungled the Japanese problem. It bungled in the first place by its failure to provide for the segregation of disloyal Japanese from loyal Japanese in the relocation centers until the investigation of the Dies Committee forces the adoption of such a policy; it bungled in the second place by its failure to set up appropriate means of screening Japanese evacuees to be sure that those released had first been adequately checked as to their loyalty and their affiliations with pro-Japanese organizations, and It bungled most of all by using the money of American taxpayers to teach Judo, Goh, the Japanese language, and to encourage other manifestations of Japanese culture in the relocation centers. Confronted with the best opportunity in American history to give Japanese citizens a laboratory demonstration of tlse virtues of the American system and the American standards of living, the WRA has failed to make the maximum use of this opportunity. To the extent that it has failed, it has bungled. Evidence that Americans, generally, are disappointed in the work of the WRA is seen in the fact the recent National Amercian Legion Convention at Omaha recommended that the operation of Japanese relocation centers be turned over to the War Department. CONGRESSMAN EBERHARTER CHALLENGES: My opponent’s statement is a skillful blend of red herrings and factual inaccuracies. WRA did not fail on segregation. It began planning segregation in April—nearly two months before the Dies Committee investigation. Testimony given before Congressman Mundt and myself clearly showed it has not failed on screening. I can only conclude that Mr. Mundt’s idea of “screening” would really mean internment of thousands of citizens without substantial evidence, in direct violation of constitutional guarantees. Judo is wrestling; Goh i§ Japanese checkers, and it has never been WRA policy to teach the Japanese language except at the request of military intelligence
officers.
CONGRESSMAN MUNDT RE-
CONGRESSMAN EBERHARTER OPENS: The essential task of the War Relocation Authority is to resettle throughout the country tha people of Japanese ancestry evacuated last year from the Pacific Coast. While resettlement is proceeding, WRA is maintaining the evacuees in government centers. I believe the agency has done a good job on both counts. In resettling evacuees, WRA has bent over backwards to safeguard the national security. It hai collected extensive information from intelligence files and other sources on every adult now in relocation centers. No evacuee is released if ther« is evidence he might be dangerous. With 21,000 people so far resettled, not one disloyal act has been reported. In operating relocation centers, WRA has handled a complicated problem with efficiency and fairness. Within the framework of rationing and other war-time limitations, it has provided adequate food, medical care, and education. To hold down operating costs, it has made the fullesl use of evacuee labor in food production and other work. A sound resettlement policy is required by our Constitution, and anything less than decent living standards at the centers would be inconsistent with all our traditions. I fail to see how this job could be administered in s more thoroughly American way. CONGRESSSMAN MUNDT CHALLENGES: Mr. Eberharter artfully seeks to avoid the issue by pleading efficiency for WRA because it neither starved, pampered nor mistreated Japanese in Relocation Centers. Its deficiencies are more basic than that! “Efficiency” is not demonstrated through failure to utilize centers as Americanization units or by simply planning segregation and not practicing it until prodded by Congress. “Fairness” is not manifest either to loyal Japanese or to Americans by releasing evacuees without systematic, adequate pre-release loyalty checks. Espionage in war-time is more serious than sabotage; saying that “no disloyal act has been reported” does not prove that no spies have been released. Dead Japanese are not the only good ones—but to rate them “good” we must be dead-
sure they are loyal!
CONGRESSMAN EBERHARTER REPLIES: I cannot understand why my colleague persistently quibbles
PLIES: It is not a “red herring” to about WRA’s pre-release investiga-
point out that “planning segregation in April” is no substitute for failure to practice it in September! Nor is it more unconstitutional to insist upon adequate pre-release loyalty checks for Japanese evacuees than it is to crowd loyal and disloyal together into relocation centers without suitable safeguards protecting the loyal against the depredations by the disloyal. Judo may be “wrestling” in my opponent’s vocabulary, but it remains a required course of physical combat training in the Japanese army. The fact that Goh IS Japanese checkers proves it does not advance American culture. We need from WRA not more alibis for perpetuating Japanism, but more activities promoting Americanism!
— ' ' IT ~ *'*£3*-* Ron. Every precaution is being taken to safeguard the national security. To detain citizens beyond the requirements of security would make a mockery of the principles for which we are fighting. To imply that a program so complex as segregation could be carried out overnight is pure nonsense. The program had to be carefully planned before it could be executed on anything like an accurate and equitable basis. Most of the evacuees are thoroughly American today. WRA’s Americanization program is vigorous, well rounded. To deepen the evacuees’ loyalty to America requires their return to normal life. Americanism does not flour-
ish behind barbed wire.

DOROTHY CANFIELD FISHER
J-HE day has passed when girls sit at home and wait for a marriageable man, according to Dorothy Canfield Fisher, novelist, educator, Book-of-the-Month Club editor, and one of the leading citizens of Vermont and points west. Nowadays, says Mrs. Fisher, girls emulate their brothers in acquiring and practising the specialized skills needed by modern society. In her new book, “Our Young Folks,” Mrs. Fisher stresses the fact that all young people, regardless of sex, need to feel that they are part of the current of their times and that they are doing work which contributes to the society in which they live. The war has provided a great impetus in this direction. Mrs. Fisher wants us to make sure there will be no slump in the
years that come after.
"Our Young Folks” grew oil of the au-
thor’s work done with the American Youth Commission, of which she has been an active member since the day it was organized. Her book, however, is no dry sociological study, but a friendly talking over of the situation by one American woman with her fellow citizens.

A respectable New York businessman named Moses Wolfert is meeting up with all sorts of shady characters, ever since the publication of a novel by his son, Ira Wolfert— 'Tucker’s People,” about the policy racket. Recently a race track mogul came up to Mr. Wolfert, Sr., and asked him, in a very hush, hush voice: “Tell me, what’s your son’s real racket?” Ira’s “racket,” by the way, is being one of our best war correspondents and a winner of this year’s Pulitzer award in journalism. He’s the author of “Battle for the Solomons” and “Torpedo 8.”

“Copper Camp,” compiled by the Writers’ Program of the Montana VTA, gives an exciting account of the boom mining days in Butte. ~ Among the famous characters of the time —' 1 f/-\ -»U> were Se nator Clark, a copper king who I / I had earned his fortune the hard way, and / / Jfrfr his two playboy sons, Willie and Charlie, ' I w h 0 were expert at spending that forJ \ tune. The story is told that once a hack — 41^ driver drove the Senator up from the ' ‘ ^ depot, in return for which he received a, dime tip. Disappointed, the cabby complained, “Why, your sons always i tip me a dollar.” “Yes, I know,” answered the Senator. “Willie and] Charlie have a rich father—I haven’t.”
ARMISTICE DAY 1943 . By Ruth Taylor “Here lie we dead because we did not choose To shame the land from which we sprung. Life is perhaps no great thing to lose, But young men think it is, and we are young.” We, who remember the casualty lists of the last war, walk with ghosts today. Besides the soldiers on our streets we see those other lads whose lives were far too short, who loved life too greatly to be miserly with it when their country called. In the Armistice Day pause this year, there will be new heroes to remember. Pearl Harbor, Bataan, Corregidor, Wake Island, Guadalcanal, North Africa, Sicily — before this article appears there will be as many other places all over the globe hallowed by those who could say as did A. E. Housman in the “Epitaph for the Fallen”— “Here lie we dead because we did not choose to shame the land from which we sprung.” They have given their all—and it was so much! Who knows what great things they might have accomplished, what great good might have come to the world if they had been allowed to live, what things they might have created, discovered, invented, taught! We have to face the fact that before this war is over, thousands upon thousands of these, our finest, will have died. They will be Americans, maybe rich, or poor, maybe Black or White, maybe Protestant, Catholic or Jew; but not German-American, Russian-American, Italian-Amer-ican; not a “son of the American Revolution”, not an immigrant—but just citizens of the United States—Americans who loved their country and its ideals of freedom and equality enough to offer their lives that these ideals of justice and democracy might not perish. We, too, though we cannot fight, must not “shame the land from which we sprung.” We have a duty as binding upon us as that of any soldier as long as this war lasts. Afterwards we have another duty, too—that of seeing to it that they did not die in vain, that the promises made in the Four Freedoms are at last fulfilled for all the people of all the earth, and that those who come after may live as free men, unafraid in a free world.
REPUBLICAN (Continued From Page One) them, we will drive them together into an alliance of mutual protection against us. We will face the world alone, without allies. We will be isolated. They will be arming against us and we will be arming against them. Nobody will be strong enough to enforce peace. And when the day of that next conflict dawns with another bloody sunrise we can honestly ask the dishonest question we hear today—what are we fighting for?—The International Teamster.
URGES JOBS FOR AMERICAN-JAPANESE
Fort Wayne, Ind., Nov. 5.—Herert Keno, Indianapolis state war relocation authority director, recommended today t. employment of American-Japanese to alleviate any labor shortage within the Fort Wayne area. “In western WRA camps are many loyal American-Japanese,” Keno said, “who are experts in numerous occupations, including skilled and unskilled workers, farmers, craftsmen and professional
people.”
Keno pointed out that these workers, employed throughout the mid-west, have received high commendation from employers. He said the WRA was in position to accept job offers at Indianapolis and to pass them on to the nine relocation camps. “Each American-Japanese is investigated thoroughly before he is asigned to any employer,” Keno emphasized'. o “Modern women can be found anywhere these days,” declares a writer. You haven’t tried to find her at home recently, have you,
brother?
SIX BOYS APPPREHENDED
Indianapolis, Nov. 5.—Six of 12 boys who escaped from the Plainfield Boys’ School last night were apprehended early today just outside of Indianapolis by school employees. State police said the youths were driving a stolen truck and the search continued for the other six still at large. They did not reveal how the boys esaped from the school.
